Change Of Tone

The Engineering and Mining Journa
of New York has materially changed 1t:
tone in the expression of its sentiments
relative to the prospective tin interests
Of Dakota Commenting upon recent
discussions before the Mining Associa-
ton and Institute ofCornwall," to which
the reading Of certain tin papers gave
rise, in which the chairman, Mr.. j. K.
Frecheville, expressed the belief that
Cornwall had nothing to fear from for
eien competition, the Journal says:
Now, there are few things, if any,
more entitled to our respect than old
| age, and, by virtue of the same rute
| there are no mines to which more ad.
| miring attention has been drawn, or in
| which more faith has been reposed,
| than in the tin mines Of Cornwall. Re-
| tiecting a share Of its glory upon its
hardy sons, that country has sent out
into the world thousands Of her miners,
until, what with Cornish men, and
Cornish pumps, and Cornish appliances
of all kinds, men were brought up to
believe that, if Cornwall were to be in
some miraculous manner "wiped out"
! the mining world would cease to so
round. In such state Of affairs, it is
perhaps only natural that in all that
concerns tin, Cornish men should wish
| to Gown the EARTH and that those who
have been called to administer their
affairs should pander to the desire. We
are, therefore, disinclned to harshly
criticise little horn blowing" and can
easily excuse Mr. Frecheville's exhibi.
ton Of British self-complacency in
drawing his conclusions. AS was to be
expected, no allusion was made to our
very promising tin deposits, and even
the "Harney Peak" was suffered to
"blush in obscurity." If, therefore,
when the advice we gave in our last
issue has been followed, and present
favorable prospects should positively
develop into important and productive
mines, great deal Of the present JOY
will give place TO sorrow. and thus once
more illustrate the mutability Of human
q fairs even in England's West Coun-
trie."
Now, since the Journal speaks of our
tin mines as favorable prospects"
which may eventually develop into
important and productive mines," we
feel like forgiving that paper for all the
harsh criticisms heaped upon our tin
properties in the past, believing that in
the light of future knowledge that
journal will eventually do some very
effective "horn blowing" in behalf Of
the tin interests Of the Black Hills Of
Dakota.

GaoRraphical Ignorance.

One of the most skilled and dis
tinguished of practical Photographic
artists is Mr.. +. Jay Haynes, of Fargo
Dakota. He is the official photographer
TO the Northern Pacific Railway. A
series of new pictures by him consist Of
a number of admirable views in the
National Park, Colorado, showing the
great geysers in operation, snow scenes
etc.-Scientitic American.
Will the geographical editor of the
Scientific American kindly inform III
whereabouts in Colorado the Nationa
Park is located? We know Of mum
ber Of New York journals who invaria
bly, locate the Black Hills in Colorado
but like the Scientific American, they
never define the precise location, ant
thus far we have failed to find either OF
Colorado map.

The New York Financial and Mining
Record in the issue of the 2nd inst,
publishes letter received from man
in London, in which an earnest desire
is manifested to obtain reliable informa-
ton relative to the merits of the Dakota
tin mines, and especially the property
of the Harvey Peak Tin Company,
limited, which has recently been organ
lied in London by James Wilson. OF
New York. The following information,
taken from the report Of the metallurgist
who made the test of the Harvey Peak
Companys ores was forwarded by the
Record to the London man as an answer
to his inquiries, which should relieve
his mind of any lingering doubts as to
the assured value of Dakota tin mines:
81 made nearly ton Of tin from ore
sent from Dakota, sold 800 lbs. to Crooks
Bros who beat it out and pronounced
it perfect. l built the mill and ran it
steadily about six days in day time,
producing about "A per cent of clear
concentrates, of which between seven
and eight tons were taken TO England
and there pronounced very good, contain
ing between 20 and 67 per cent of white
tin. l also shipped lot Of ore weigh
ing about 5000 lbs. estimated to contain
per cent of tin, also two or three tons
Of ore. The mill shut down because the
one mine could not possibly supply the
ore, but now the company has bought
all the good tin mines in the vicinity,
and has an ample supply of ore"
1t is our belief that there are large
deposits Of tin ore in Oak ota that in
time will come to be worked with pro-

ton next winter and secure the passage
Of bill opening to settlement the Sioux
reservation. Such a combination may
be in process of incubation, and possibly
it may succeed in the ostensible object
but the puzzle is to know what would
be the good Of it. That the reservation
should no longer be held as desert
waste and chasm in front Of the Black
Hills country nearly all will concede
but under the present administration OF
the land Office department we cannot
settle the vacant lands already opened
to claim entry and designed to supply
"homes for the homeless and land for
the landless." However, an omnibus
bill providing for the simultaneous re-
moval of Lo from the Sioux reservation
and Sparks from the land office would
meet with hearty approval throughout
theterritory.-Pi Press.

The population of the twin cities OF
st. Paul and Minneapolis has been in
creased from $4,000 to 10000 during the
past year, rs shown by their respective
directories issued on the End inst.
Sixty-three million dollars worth of real
estate changed hands in the two places
during the first six months Of the
present year. The advancement Of these
cities is almost phenomenal, and cannot
fail to impress the reader with the
marvellous progress Of the great north

dog, skye terrier, were walking by this place,
when We were attacked by powerful Newfound-
land dog, called "Lion," and had it not been for
our lttle pet perhaps one or both OF US might have
been torn 10 pieces. This brutal dog seized our
pet through the back, crushed his RIBS and tore
open his side In such a manner that he had 10 he

that the street here Is blind one, with no outlet

cries for help at first only received In reply the
brutal laugh OF two negroes on this place, but

The Proposed Catholic University.

WHAT CARDINAL GIBBONS SAYS OF ITS LOCATION.
In conversation in Baltimore yesterday Cardi-
dial Gibbons. in speaking OF the proposed Catholic
university, said 1t is probable, but by no means
absolutely certain, that it will be located in Wash
ington nor Will its location be definitely settled
until the meeting in september next. Bishop
keane, OF Richmond was with him Wednesday
and they conferred. and while that bishop had the
matter in hand they could settle nothing def
nitely. He said that not less than Il million dol.
lars will be required to place the institution on
sound basis. and that will be large sum OF money
to raise. When asked II its location In New York
would not produce larger donations for its estab.
lishment he replied that New York is the largest
business center, and contains more Catholics than
any other city OF the country, and that might ia
fOrably affect its location there However, MOTH
ing can be done, nor will any effort be made until
the September meeting.
Cardinal Gibbons eXp pressed sincere regret at the
course OF DR.. McGlynn in following the YagarteS OF
the free-land people, but expressed no opinion as
TO what Will be the course or the church authOri-
ties in his case.
